Chapter 51: The Hongwen Pavilion Turmoil
Since the Wude period, Emperor Gaozu placed the Xiuwen Museum under the Menxia Province, and during the Zhenguan period, Emperor Taizong changed to the Hongwen Museum, which is now the Hongwen Museum. Up to now, the bachelor of Hongwenguan is not only an official position, but also a coolie who compiles and teaches the children of nobles above the third grade in the compilation of ritual and historical classics, and is also a symbol of status.
Being able to become a bachelor of Hongwenguan is not only the emperor's affirmation of your talent, but also an honor. Although the Hanlin Academy is also a place where outstanding literati from the Tang Dynasty are concentrated, the current Hanlin Academy is not as prosperous as it will be in the future. Hongwen Hall is still the highest academic palace in the Tang Dynasty.
It is more inclined to the Hongwen Hall of the Imperial Ouchi, who is in charge of rituals, whether it is the dynastic ceremonies from ancient times to the present, or folk customs, and even the ceremonies and music of foreign people in Fanbang.
Especially since Master Xuanzang's journey to the west, exchanges between countries in Tianzhu have become more and more frequent, and Tianzhu's Buddhist culture, music culture, food, etc. have been introduced to the Tang Dynasty. At this time, the Tang Dynasty was like the sea, accommodating, blending, and finally forming a unique and all-encompassing Tang culture.
The big ones are indecent!
Hongwen Hall is next to the door next to the Xuanzheng Hall of Daming Palace, which belongs to the Chinese Dynasty, not a court official, and will not let you enter, except for those on official business, of course. In and out of here, almost all of them are above the fifth grade. Even the soldier guarding the gate was a captain.
Sitting in Princess Taiping's sedan chair for the first time, and such a six-year-old Lori in such a small space, Wu Qingfu thought about it. It's not because of Princess Taiping's delicate appearance, but about the memory of her previous life, Princess Taiping in her memory, known as Luoyang Peony, imagine that those men who were lucky by Princess Taiping are very happy. But think about the man behind Princess Taiping, how sad he is, he didn't dare to say anything with a green hat.
It's just that how do you look at this princess Taiping now, she doesn't look like such a ** woman.
There were no words all the way, but the two children were very silent until they entered the Hongwen Pavilion.
The owner of the museum, Li Yuansi, who is of royal blood, visited Princess Taiping, and then took Princess Taiping and Wuqing to the library building located in Hongwen Pavilion.
Since Emperor Taizong selected the world's virtuous literary scholars such as Yu Shinan, Chu Liang, Ouyang Xun, etc., to compile and collect more than 200,000 volumes of various books, Hongwen Museum has experienced nearly 30 years of development and reached more than 300,000 volumes. There are not only the books of the Tang Dynasty, but also the cultural and educational records of foreign tribes in Fanbang.
And Wuqing, the purpose of coming here is to check a part of the etiquette and music of the foreign tribes in Fanbang. Because the "Ni Clothes and Feather Clothes Song" in my memory is from Tianzhu's "Brahmin Song", adding the performance mode of the Tang Taoist palace tune and the French song, and then adding Taoist mythological allusions to become the world-famous "Ni Clothes and Feather Clothes Song".
It's not that Wu Qing doesn't want to take advantage of the performances at the song and dance parties in later generations, but the songs and dances of later generations have added the most important lighting effect, which cannot be achieved in this era. If you really want to take out a modern dance without lights, it will not be a deviance, but it will be imprisoned as a neuropathy!
There are three library buildings, all are three-storey wooden structure octagonal attic, occupy a very large area, Wuqing has two or three acres of appearance, divided into Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, of which Confucianism occupies two, Buddhism occupies one, Fanbang literature and education books are also on the attic of Buddhism.
Wu Qing and Princess Taiping were about to enter the library building, but they didn't want to, and a very harsh voice came from the side.
"Hey, whose wild child is this, ah, it turned out to be Her Royal Highness the Princess, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm abrupt."
It turned out to be Wu Minzhi!
Wu Min's scarlet robe, this is a five-grade official uniform, and the official rank of the bachelor of Hongwen Pavilion is from the fifth grade, and his handsome face looks a little frivolous because of those evil eyes.
Princess Taiping showed disgust in her eyes, since the palace maid she brought was defiled by Wu Minzhi that day, she hated Wu Minzhi very much, but her father and mother were quiet, and they did not hold them responsible, which made her very angry, and she wanted to kill Wu Minzhi in her heart. Although her face was very angry, as the princess of the Tang Dynasty, Princess Taiping was still young, but she already understood that she still had the demeanor she should have.
"This palace wants to read here, if you have nothing to do, you can leave."
Princess Taiping's words pierced Wu Minzhi's ears like a fine needle, and he couldn't help but be angry in his heart, my mother was defiled by your father and died in the hands of your mother, and my sister was also defiled by your father and poisoned by your mother, but I still want to be the heir of the martial family, I now see your martial family and the Li family, and I have to lie on my stomach like a dog, I am ashamed of my ancestors and ancestors. You wait, when you are mature, you will get it back with interest.
"Hehe, then the princess will take care of herself, and the lower officials will not bother. But what's the matter with that kid? Can a cat or a dog come in this Hongwen Pavilion? Wu Minzhi pointed at Wu Qing and said.
Wu Qing was very angry in his heart, really, this princess is here, you are so arrogant, and you still can't get along with me, what if I provoke you? "Brother Minzhi, do we have something to say in the house, this is Hongwen Pavilion."
In fact, at this time, the curator slipped away very interestingly, he is a human spirit, such a thing, it is better to know less, but those school scholars of the Hongwen Museum, etc., all looked here, wanting to eavesdrop on some news, so as to be used as an after-dinner conversation, gossip is people's nature.
Wu Minzhi sneered: "Hongwen Pavilion, you actually know that this is Hongwen Pavilion, so what are you still doing?" You are a classless official, you can't enter according to the rules here, do you have the emperor's edict? Do you have a warrant for the province of the door? Haha, I know you don't, you, don't get out of here! ”
Wu Qing never thought that Wu Minzhi was so unkind, in such a place where there were so many five-grade officials, as two brothers with the same surname Wu and living under the same roof, they would be so ruthless, without any affection, without the slightest brotherly affection, and they would blush more than when they met enemies.
Princess Taiping looked at Wu Minzhi in astonishment, and then looked at Wu Qing with a blue face, she knew that they were her cousins, she couldn't be biased, so she could only stomp her feet and said, "You, you guys actually let me go to my father!" ”
It was a storm that swept through the entire Hongbunkan and the palace in one morning. Empress Wu listened to Taiping's complaint, and couldn't help frowning slightly, since the death of her sister and niece, that Wu Minzhi has suspected herself, and on the surface she seems to be very deferential to herself, in fact, she has been rewarded He intentionally or unintentionally expressed his resentment and dissatisfaction with himself after being drunk. Now it seems that he is not targeting Wu Qing, but himself, and he wants to humiliate the people of my Wu family, especially the people of the Wu family who are loved by him. Judging from the palace maid who defiled the peace last time, he hated everyone who was related to me.
For a moment, Empress Wu fell into deep thought.
Emperor Gaozong said with a smile: "It's normal for two brothers to quarrel, what's the fuss, Taiping, I'll send a letter now, and you can give it to Wuqing." ”
"Your Majesty, wait a minute!" Empress Wu walked up to Gaozong, frowned slightly, and said: "Wu Minzhi is from my clan, my clan is a bachelor of Hongwen Pavilion, and a five-grade official of the imperial court. ”
Gaozong was stunned for a moment, he liked one thing about Empress Wu very much, that is, he never asked his people to be added to the rank of knight, and even was quite harsh on his own people, he propped up his weak body and said: "Queen, Minzhi is your relative." ”
Empress Wu said righteously: "Your Majesty, Wu Minzhi and Wu Qing are both concubines, but they are also the emperor's courtiers." In the important land of culture and education, openly insulting and rejecting the emperor's courtiers is a blasphemy against my Tang Dynasty culture and education, and it is even more disrespectful to the emperor. ”
Gaozong thought about it, it was really like this, so he said: "Then according to the queen's meaning, what should I do, he is the queen's clansman." The implication is that although Wu Minzhi is at fault, it is all his own business, not to mention that Gaozong has always been obsessed with Wu Minzhi's mother and sister, and he is a little more accommodating to Wu Minzhi.
Who is Empress Wu, how could she not hear what Gaozong meant, pondered for a moment, and then said: "Your Majesty, in this way, you can remove Wu Minzhi from the status of a bachelor of the Hongwen Pavilion." ”
"Okay then." Gaozong still agreed, although he was dismissed from the bachelor of Hongwenguan, Wu Minzhi also had the official position of secretary and provincial commander, which was not low.
When the holy decree was issued to Hongwenguan, the hundred officials were shocked, what was going on?
